Diver Swims With Deadly 26-Foot Anaconda

Obviously, this diver hasn't seen the movie "Anaconda." According to the Daily Mail U.K., diver and snake fanatic Franco Banfi took a dip with a 26-foot anaconda who was on the prowl for food in Mato Grosso, Brazil.

The opportunity also allowed Banfi to get up close to the anaconda on land, as well. The diver confidently approached a snake digesting its meal.

"As the snake had just eaten, it didn't take much interest in us," Banfi told Daily Mail U.K. "Everything is possible, but I don't think it would have eaten us. I was very close; I could have touched it if I wanted to."

Mrkjessup...you need to find a web site that is more your speed...and you'll never find one because your the stupidist MFer I ever seen....you might as well just stop paying for internetand go back to ******* your own penis....LMFAO

mrkjessup is a ******* who no reason to be on here and knows nothing about or wants to know about science...these type of people should just stay home and smoke crack...mrkjessup...get a life we don't need to know who you blew today or tomorrow or yesterday ya *****...so stay away from intelligent conversations...it will serve you well!!!!

Anacondas don't attack anything they can't swallow. A full-grown man in diving gear? Hardly. Calling the snake deadly is misleading. Many Aquariums would to love to have this animal. I hope that (as human nature has proved) that no one tries to kill it. The article calls the snake a "predator." What does it think humans are?

This is fake. A 26 foot Anaconda would be a world record. If this were true, you'd have every single herpetologist in the world on the first plane they could get on to go to Brazil. But mostly this photo looks "photoshoped."
